Fans of duck will fall for this Asian-inspired recipe. Basting with a honey and soy sauce mixture results in moist, tender slices.Jennifer Yanfen Sadjadi, High Point, North Carolina Ingredients:
1 domestic duck (5 to 6 pounds) |
1 tablespoon chinese five-spice powder |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 teaspoons salt |
2 teaspoons sugar |
2 teaspoons ground ginger |
2 teaspoons pepper |
2 teaspoons ground cloves |
4 green onions, cut into 2-inch pieces |
2 tablespoons minced fresh gingerroot |
4 garlic cloves, peeled |
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce |
1/4 cup honey |
1/4 cup soy sauce |
2 tablespoons cider vinegar |
Directions:
1. Prick skin of duck well with a fork. Combine the five-spice powder, garlic, salt, sugar, ginger, pepper and cloves; rub over the outside and inside of duck. Combine the green onions, gingerroot, garlic cloves and hoisin; place inside the cavity.
2. Combine the honey, soy sauce and vinegar. Bake at 350° for 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 180°, basting occasionally with honey mixture. Cover loosely with foil if duck browns too quickly. Cover and let stand for 15 minutes before carving. Yield: 6 servings.
